Severe Tire Damage-greatest Hits

Dressed only in clothes
From her head to her toes
This is the way
The talking part goes

S-e-x-x-y
More than enough
Around the clock with nobody else
S-e-x-x-y

There she is
Standing on the bed
Cookie in one hand, wig on her head
S-e-x-x-y

X because it's extra baby
Y because it's extra baby
Unnoticed by few
Very very few
And that includes you

Look inside your mind
Look inside your eye
Secret agent spy, come to see why
S-e-x-x-y

One finger nail
Across your back
Baby's first gold tooth initials inscribed
S-e-x-x-y

X because it's extra baby
Y because it's extra baby
You gotta understand
She wants to be your man
She's got another plan

You might be thinking that you're free
You might be sailing 'cross the sea
You might be staring at the stars,
But you'll be thinking
About me.
Me

they call me dr. worm.
Good morning. how are you? i'm dr. worm.
I'm interested in things.
I'm not a real doctor,
But i am a real worm;
I am an actual worm.
I live like a worm.

I like to play the drums.
I think i'm getting good,
But i can handle criticism.
I'll show you what i know,
And you can tell me if you think i'm getting better on the drums.
I'll leave the front un-locked 'cause i can't
Hear the doorbell

When i get into it i can't tell if you are
Watching me twirling the stick.
When i give the signal, my friend
Rabbi vole will play the solo

Some day somebody else besides me will
Call me by my stage name, they will
Call me dr worm.
Good morning how are you, i'm dr worm
I'm interested in things.
I'm not a real doctor,
But i am a real worm;
I am an actual worm.
I live like a worm.

I like to play the drums.
I think i'm getting good,
But i can handle criticism.
I'll show you what i know,
And you can tell me if you think i'm getting better on the drums.
I'm not a real doctor,
But they call me dr. worm.

Julie at the station says they'll be here any minute now
But she's running out of records and her show is ending anyhow.
They can hear her saying their name on the car radio
But the signal keeps fading out no matter which way they go.
I heard they might be somewhere in this town
They might be giants got lost driving around

John said to john, i think we make a left at the light
There should be a big crinkle, assuming this map is right
John looked over and said, hey, no its not
It's a crumpled up wrapper from the fast food that we got
I heard they might be somewhere in this town
They might be giants got lost driving around

Dan said to hal, "i see somebody walking this way"
So they rolled down the window and said, "hello. hey excuse me, hey"
"could you tell us where we are and the best way out of here"
They could tell from his expression he had absolutely no idea
I heard they might be somewhere near this town
They might be giants got lost driving around
Driving around
Driving around
They're still driving around

Xtc versus adam ant
Content versus form
Fighting for their place in rock and roll
There is no right or wrong

Just when you think it's finished
With xtc on top
Ant music, like a phoenix
Flies back up the charts

Xtc versus adam ant
Only one will survive
Beatle-based pop versus new romantic
History will decide

Xtc versus adam ant
I can't tell you why
Even the singer from bow wow wow
Can't make up her mind

Xtc versus adam ant
Time is marching on
Xtc versus adam ant
There is no right or wrong

There is no right or wrong

There is
No right
Or wrong

Meet james ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man

Before there were junk stores
Before there was junk
He lived with his mother and the torments of christ
The world was transformed
A crowd gathered round
Pressed against his window so they could be the first

To meet james ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Raise a glass and sit and stare
Understand the man

He lost all his friends
He didn't need his friends
He lived with his mother and repeated himself
The world has forgotten
The world moved along
The crowd at his window went back to their homes

Meet james ensor
Meet james ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man

This ape's for you
He's coming atcha
This ape's for you
He wants to love you

All my friends are beneath the planet of the apes
All my friends are
All my friends are
All my friends are beneath the planet of the apes
And when i get there
I'll find my friends there
Deep inside the ground
Underneath the town
Where the apes live
Where the apes live
You can't walk around
Because it is in town
All my friends are
All my friends are
Beneath the planet
Of the apes

Escape from the planet of the apes
Well we gotta escape from the planet of the apes
'cause all our friends are on different planet
Yes all my friends are on a different planet now
Gotta escape from the planet of the apes
Gotta escape from the planet of the apes
I've got a starship that will take you to the planet where mick jagger lives
We've gotta escape to the planet of the apes
We've gotta escape to the planet of the apes before we explode.

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees

Yo ho, it's hot, the sun is not
A place where we could live
But here on earth there'd be no life
Without the light it gives

We need its light
We need its heat
We need its energy
Without the sun, without a doubt
There'd be no you and me

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees

The sun is hot

It is so hot that everything on it is a gas: iron, copper, aluminum, and many others.

The sun is large

If the sun were hollow, a million earths could fit inside. and yet, the sun is only a middle-sized star.

The sun is far away

About 93 million miles away, and that's why it looks so small.

And even when it's out of sight
The sun shines night and day

The sun gives heat
The sun gives light
The sunlight that we see
The sunlight comes from our own sun's
Atomic energy

Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-smashing machine. the heat and light of the sun come from the nuclear reactions of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and helium.*

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees

Conquest, it's a type of quest
They called it a conquest of the planet of the apes
Conquest, they played it at request
It was another type of quest
For the planet of the apes
Conquest!
Request!
We're gonna have an inquest
But this is a type of quest
For the planet of the apes
Yeah!

I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
But i'm a little glowing friend
But really i'm not actually your friend
But i am

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

I have a secret to tell
From my electrical well
It's a simple message and i'm leaving out the whistles and bells
So the room must listen to me
Filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary one note* spelled l-i-t-e
My story's infinite
Like the longines symphonette it doesn't rest

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
But i'm a little glowing friend
But really i'm not actually your friend
But i am

There's a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though i respect that a lot
I'd be fired if that were my job
After killing jason off and countless screaming argonauts
Bluebird of friendliness
Like guardian angels its always near

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

(and while you're at it
Keep the nightlight on inside the
Birdhouse in your soul)

Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while you're at it)
Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)
Make a little birdhouse in your soul (birdhouse in your soul)

Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while you're at it)
Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)
Make a little birdhouse in your soul (birdhouse in your soul)

Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul




Notes

The dial-a-song version has the following significantly altered lyrics:

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
He watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

I have a secret to tell
Out when you're all by yourself
There's a time when even you get up and leave your nothing to dwell
I don't want to talk about that
And no one listens to that
But for the one who does, and she's the one you worry about
Don't you say anything
If you have anything to do with it

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
He watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

I'd like to cover the earth
With a fresh-baked yummy dessert
People couldn't live in it, but i think it's worth the money and hurt
'cause i couldn't tolerate
All the empty places in the world

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
He watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Make a little birdhouse in your soul

I don't feel thirty
Give me something to write on
I don't feel three hundred
Give me something to write on
